No Austen novel is safe from the “satirical eye” of The Onion. Persuasion gets the honor today.
I tend to match headlines to book scenes and characters in my mind first, not to movies. Then I find the best screenshot to fit. In this case that meant mixing Persuasion adaptations. On the plus side, we get Rupert Penry-Jones and Ciaran Hinds together in one post.
Indeed, Anne. Indeed.
